idle -gear N into mesh with the other gel-ars` M the table will be rotated in one ulrecL-i and by reversingl the operation rection.4 v.

-Mounted on the cross bars or beams F of the frame F, are pivot members O ,carrying a body P which is supported by suitable supports P', carried bythe truck, when in its normal position, and it will be seen that when the body is swung into :1J-'transverse the table will be rotated inthe reverse diposition, it will t-ilt by its own weight, and' the same is pivoted to' one side ofits longi-4 tudinal center, so that the load will be *dise oharged. L, p

For controlling the-.tilting movementof the body, I provide a pair of retarding chains Q which have their ends connected to the frame F and pass over idle sprockets:

Q', Q2, arranged on the sides of the body and over sprockets Q3 carried by shafts Q4 extendingoutwardly from the sides of the body, as clearly shown, the shafts carrying gears R which mesh with 'gears S carried by shafts S mounted in suitable bearings S2 extending downwardly from the bottom of the body, and provided with crank receivingl ends S3, over which is adapted to be placed i 'a crank T for rotating the same, and it willA be seen that by allowing the crank T to ro.. tate slowly,l the body can be allowed to tiltslowly in order to prevent thesame from coming into engagement with the pavement with too hard ak blow. The body -is provided with buffers U for preventing the same from being injured, and after .the load has been discharged by operating the crank T, the body can be raised back into a horizontal position.

The body is looked-by pawls V which engage ratchets V, carried bythe shafts Q,

and it will be seen that by disengaging the -pawls, whenthe body is thrown into a transverse posit-ion and releasing the crank, the

same will drop with such force that when 'brought into engagement with `the ground,

a clear discharge will be obtained.

From the foregoing description it will be-V seen that I have provided an auto truck with a-body which is 'so' mounted that the load can be discharged from either sideeasily' and' quickly.

Having `thus fully described myin'vention, `what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is v "In-a device of the-kind described, a frame comprising parallel beams, a second frame at right angles to and above -tlie first mentioned frame, a bearing ring mounted upon the first mentionedframe', a second ring mounted upon the-first, the second mentioned ringsupportin'g@ he second' mentioned frame, a-bearingj-.member centrallyarranged in the firstjmentioned frame and supported therefrom, and a second bearing member centrally larrangedinthe second mentioned fram g-turning upon the bearing .l rstxfmentioned frame, and means mpar'ting rotation tothe second menv j 4 'truckof the-kind described, parallel'beams mounted transversely upon the ,truck,'ja 'bearing rirgsupported upon said beams, a centrally placed bearing member having laterally extending arms secured to said beams, .a--zsecond ring adapted to-turn upon the first, a vfrarnecarried by said secI- ondmentioned ring, and normally at rightangles to the beams, a second bearing lmember adapted to turn upon the'first mentionedbearing vmember and having laterally eX- tending arms secured to the said frame,^anfl means for rotating 'the` second mentioned ring, as and for the purpose set fortlL
